Fresh aroma like green apple and fresh gas. Juicy flavor, soft sweetness, and crisp acidity ✨.
I am grateful to be able to enjoy it while feeling the passion and philosophy of the Hana-no-Kagura Brewery towards nature 😆.
Welcome 🤗tomo to Yokohama!
It's been a while since I've posted, but I've been drinking sake, but once I stop...
Finally got to go to Kagura, Ane's favorite restaurant and one I've been wanting to try ✨!
Nice to meet you this time ichiri18 and misamisao 🙌
I'm not a fan of all-you-can-drink places, I can't drink at my own pace lol. I'm sorry every time but I don't learn 😅 everyone goes at the same pace as Ane-san who has a fast pace 😆 are you all strong too 💪.
Ane-san sent me a picture of what we drank the next day, but I don't remember what I drank in the second half... If I drank so much, I'll miss the train too...
I had about my 4th glass of sansho and it was delicious 😋 I got a mouthful and it was shwashy and refreshing!
tomo, see you next year at this restaurant 😆.
Lastly, I borrowed Tsubu-chan's patented photography method 🥂.
Yukachin, good morning 🌞.
All-you-can-drink is dangerous, but I liked the lineup at this restaurant: ☺️
I've already got next year's hotel down so I'm all set 😁.
Good evening...
My favorite restaurant is not me, but Master ICHIRO18. But I'm going back next week to make it my favorite 🤣.
You didn't look that drunk 😁.
Hananohana Brewery
San-do 2024 Kago Rokunozo
San-do is a gaseous sensation
Of course, this time too, the bottle was opened with a pusher.
I brought it to my parents' house once and when I opened the bottle, the lid flew up to the ceiling with a pop (lol).
The aroma is sweet and sour, like a glamorous rumney or a ripe apple 🍎.
The first sip has an abundance of gas, sourness, sweetness, and dryness.
The taste is well-balanced, with a variety of flavors, but each in its own right. ☺️
It's also very sharp and tasty.
First time drinking Kumamoto sake 🍶.
The cork was as strong as champagne as it flew out of the bottle. I didn't know to be careful when opening the cork 😳.
It has a fresh, fizzy, bubbly taste. It had a hint of acidity and a slight sweetness typical of Yamada-Nishiki, and was very elegant to drink. Very tasty 😋.
100% Yamadanishiki produced in the Kikuchi River basin, Kumamoto Prefecture
Polishing ratio unknown
Good evening, Mr. Matchi 😃.
Congratulations on your Kumamoto burial㊗️ at Sando 🎉I remember the shocking deliciousness we felt when we had our first drink😊.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😀
It's been a while since I was able to add a prefecture to the list ☺️ I was surprised to see it hit the ceiling with a lid jump, but it's low in alcohol content and most importantly, it's easy to drink. It's a great bottle, I want to drink it again 😆.
The second new Sake from San-do is Yamada-Nishiki after Hozu!
This is also a four-no brewery, and this year's sake is also very good.

San-do 2024 Yamadanishiki Shichi-no-sho
I bought it because it was the first Shichinonosai.
The aroma was complex and sweet, perhaps because of the previous information that it was a noble sake. It is delicious!
However, the sizzling sensation was restrained. The September rod of Ninonozo was also less sweet.
Good points
"Sweet and delicious, but not sticky.
"It is light and easy to drink.
Concerns
"I would like to see a little more shwashiness in the sansho.
Ingredient rice: Hozu
Alcohol content 13
No brewing, rice grown in the Kikuchi River basin, no fertilizer, no pesticides, natural yeast strain
First of all, a promotion. Have you already bought the JR East Project's Hakobyun Delivery Direct Kumi Toyohai that went on sale today, December 5th? I bought it today and will introduce it to you sooner or later! That's all! Here is the main story!
I thought I knew what I was getting into when I drank Yamada-Nishiki Sansho, but if I am going to judge Sansho, it should be brewed with rice that is unique to Kumamoto. This is my first time drinking Hozu, how do you like it? Let's go!
I was afraid it would leak, but it turned out to be fine. The carbonation was amazing. The lactic acid taste like calpis is the same as before, but there is a sweet melon-like aroma hidden in it. A little more floral than the Ninoh Brewery? The lactic sweetness, acidity, bitterness, and umami produced from the gaseous, slightly hard mineral brewing water is quite intense, with a sweetness like a shortcake. This beautiful and strong cream-like sweetness tastes like Senkou's raw sake. The slight depth and sweetness of the grapes disappear like a mist. Hozu has a strong sweetness, but not too much. I thought to myself, "This is just like making sweets. Thank you again for this evening!
Somewhat carmelized? Aroma.
Sweet and slightly savory. Sweet cider. Sweeter and more robust than Ninong Brewing. It's good without any complaints.
With raw oysters from Kitami, which were given to us by our hometown tax payer.
First time at San-Do-san, we started with Ninonozo.
One sip and you will understand why it is so popular!
I'm not a big fan of grain vinegar, and I'm not a fan of some of the traditional sake brewed from the traditional sake brewer's yeast.
but this one tastes like a good combination of rice and sake.
I would like to have it again!
